No Greater Love, Part Two: Repercussions  by MJ 6 Review(s)
PSWReviewed Chapter: 4 on 12/4/2016
I think the timing of Hobbits with Earendil was lovely -- it gave me a bit of a shiver when I read it.

I really liked Frodo's thoughts on *why* someone who had never had a problem with Olorin before might potentially be reacting badly to this new revelation -- always do important to stop and ask *why*. And I can see this happening, really -- both in this case, and I'm his example with Elladan. Our prejudices are so silently sewn in sometimes that we don't actually even realize they're there until something happens to highlight them...

Enjoying, thanks!

What a perfect idea, that the Hobbits awoke with the first rise of the Gil-estel! And Frodo was right to confide what he heard to Manwe and Varda, of course.

Author Reply: Thank you kindly. As I've said, it was an idea that proved impossible to resist. :)

Just wanted to let you know I am enjoying this story. I remember the story about Olorin's return to Valinor and loved that one too.
Hope you feel better soon.

Author Reply: Thanks, things are improving (not quite as fast as I could wish, but any improvement is good). I'm glad you've enjoyed my tales, and thank you for leaving a comment.

They came at dusk, with the first rising of Eärendil's star: Gil-estel, the star of high hope. Your people were Eru's secret hope for the future of Arda.

That is an absolutely lovely idea.

Author Reply: Thank you! I'm not exactly sure where the idea came from, but once it popped into my head, it felt so right I couldn't just ignore it.

What a mess! I can't wait for the Evening Council...But first, take care of yourself.

Author Reply: I'm working in it, thanks. Colds are just annoying, not to mention tiring. But I AM getting better, so more will come soon.

Your wonderful story deserves that I go back and comment on each chapter of the preceding tales. I will not be doing that, but I assure you I have read them. This continuation is most intriguing. I look forward to each chapter. Thanks for your hard work.

Author Reply: You're very welcome, and thanks for reading and taking a moment to comment. I hope you continue to enjoy!
